Comment:

Serchuk is one of my favorite professors and PEOPLE at Southern. She makes class interesting. She inspired me to truly love and appreciate art! I learned so much. Can't believe some of these comments! She was always understanding, CARING, and helpful to ALL her students. I took her 3 semesters ago and I can STILL go to her for help on anything!

All I have to say about her is she is BRILLIANT. She teaches the students so much and I never had interest in art history until taking this class. She does expect a lot of every student, but does want you to do the best.

Comment:

She's extremely rude and doesn't care about her students. If she has a problem with you, she will make the other teachers treat you poorly which is so wrong. She refuses to talk with any student outside of class. I have an A in the class only because when she lectures, I study without listening to her because she never gets to the point.

She is the absolute worst professor I have ever had. Socially inept and boring too. Her personality can change on a dime. Extremely hard to get along with and scattered. Most frustrating teaching style I have ever encountered.

Comment:

One of the sweetest, most caring, and intelligent professors I've had at SCSU. She seemed rude and scattered the first day, but she throws back at you what you give her. If you listen, participate, and make an effort in all of your assignments, you will do great. Definitely go visit her office hours and always bring up dogs: she will love you.

Absolutely an amazing professor. She will do everything in her power to make sure her students pass her class. You do have to put in a lot of effort to study though, there is a lot of material. This class wasn't an easy A but it wasn't impossible either. Honestly start studying as soon as you get the syllabus.

She may be a good professor but her people skills could use a lot of work. She can be very rude at times and extremely hard to get along with. You take her class and you'll live to regret it.

great class with very good lecture slides. during the focus classes once a week, serchuk literally gave us the entire test, and told us what was going to be asked about each picture. gives you a chance to redo all assignments except tests, and has a lot of office hour time

Professor Serchuk wants you to succeed in her class. She has been instrumental in me doing well in this class. Her lectures are fun and interesting. She is a wonderful woman, and she is very passionate about what she teaches. Would absolutely recommend taking this class if you are even slightly interested in art or history.

Amazing! Professor Serchuck gives every person taking this course clear instructions on how he or she may succeed in this course. Serchuck is also very fair, good with responding to her emails, and makes this course interesting. Note: do not talk if she is talking-this really annoys her

Comment:

Overall, I learned a lot about medieval art, and came to really appreciate it. Dr. Serchuk can be a little difficult to deal with sometimes, though. She marked me absent several times when I had actually attended class, and I had to go through a lot to get her to admit her error and correct it. Aside from that, class discussions were a lot of fun.

Comment:

At first, I wasn't sure if I would be able to pass this class. But after the first test, I realized that it wasn't so bad. Prof Serchuk is very tough but she ultimately wants the best for her students. If you ask her for help, she will help you! She is a tough grader but if she sees that you are making an effort to improve she cuts some slack!

Professor Serchuk was incredible to have in Art 105. She was always willing to find time to meet with students. Her lectures are direct and VERY helpful towards exams. DO NOT MISS LECTURE, OR YOUR EXAM GRADE WILL SUFFER.

Comment:

Dr. Serchuk so far has been the best professor i've had at SCSU. I've never been so it's easy to say taking her course was one of the main reasons i changed my major to art history. She's passionate, and if you do the work she likes you. i highly recommend not taking not only her course, but her classes.

She is so passionate and SO knowledgeable about her field. She can be spread thin with her commitments sometimes which can make her intimidating/short with you, but she is AMAZING as a professor and a mentor.

Comment:

One of the best SCSU professors, and one of most knowledgable individuals I have met. Anyone complaining it's too hard bc of memorization should go back to 1st grade...because that's art history, and thats life. She shows you the bigger picture of it all. She can be intimidating at times, but she knows how to drive you. Well worth the mon
